akoia swim for fwrd crochet mini dress in butter yellow. retails $315 — an fwrd exclusive.

100% cotton. hand made in indonesia. quoted from the garment's own label.

akoia make crochet swim and apparel by hand, by women artisans in bali, and they are plastic-free across sourcing, production and packaging. the brand say a single hand-crocheted piece can take up to five days to complete. you can see where those days went: the bust is built from crocheted flower medallions ringed in shell stitch, with an openwork band cutting across the neckline.

from there the body runs in dense rows to a dropped waist, where the skirt gathers and flares out to a scalloped hem. halter tie at the neck. low open back. unlined throughout.

the yellow is soft and warm - butter, not lemon. it is a cover-up in the proper sense, cut to go over a bikini and open enough that you will want one.

⚠ care, from the garment's own label: hand wash in cool water. the brand add: no harsh chemicals, no long soaking, reshape and dry flat in the shade, and store it folded rather than hung — a wet crochet dress on a hanger will stretch itself into a different garment.

akoia are stocked at fwrd, free people, ssense and moda operandi. this one was made for fwrd.
